The present invention discloses a method for preparing the nanometer-level silver
powder, and comprises the steps such as the reduction reaction, the
surface chemical treatment and the
drying, wherein, the reduction reaction: (1)
organic acid dispersing agent is added into the organic
alcohol solution to be mixed, and then is added with silver-contained material and neovaricaine
reducer to be uniformly mixed, and to obtain the suspension solution; (2) the suspension solution that is obtained in the mixing step (1) is heated to 80 to 100 DEG C; (3) within 2 to 4 hours, neovaricaine
reducer is dropped into the suspension solution that is obtained in step (2), and is continued to be mixed for 0.5 to 1 hour, and is cooled to 50 DEG C plus or minus 5 DEG C, and is kept still to precipitate the silver
powder; the silver-contained material is one or two mixtures of
silver carbonate and
silver oxide. The method of the present invention is simple and easy to be done; the produced nanometer silver
powder has high purity, good dispersing property, and small grain large specific surface and wide
drying temperature range; the powder can be effectively prevented from being self sintered or clustered, and is easy to be dispersed to be organic carrier.
